I live in a country with low population density, the same ideas will apply to the many areas in the US with low population density. In these areas private roading would make no sense. Rural roads require disproportionate amounts of funding for the amount of usage they get, especially roads through difficult terrain. If it was left to private industry there would not be roads leading to small towns. It's not economic to build them.


Seems more like an arguement on why very specific roads shouldn't be left up to private companies.  Not the road systems at large.

Additionally, it has to be considered if it's actually sensible to have paved roads to small towns at huge cost to everybody involved.
